Kate Campbell has an endearing, clear-water vocal delivery and an eloquent gift for storytelling. Our special guest this
year is Hawaii's first poet laureate, Kealoha.

The Festival: Oral storytelling is an art for all ages, from the cutest kids and the hippest adults through the wisest grandparents.

Saturday and Sunday we offer several performances for adults and older kids, a family program and more workshops. We are also
hosting an invitational spoken word slam for local high school students.

Mission Statement: The Bay Area Storytelling Festival promotes the timeless, contemporary art of storytelling by presenting today's finest talents. The
festival showcases the power of stories to bridge generations, celebrate diverse cultures, and build and connect communities.
